Reviews

"This book needs to be in every woman's medicine cabinet next to the Tylenol and the Bayer aspirin."

—J. Elizabeth Hale Turner, Paradise Dream

"Finally everything a woman need's is in one book!"

—Lanette Everett, Business Counselor

"Jamie Walker has written a healing balm for Black women daily assaulted by racist and sexist realities. Her prescriptive words are also instructive to us men socialized to view women as objects. Her loving engagement with Black women in the book--reminding them of their subjectivity and agency--teaches us to see Black women with new eyes, to love Black women with renewed hearts, and maybe, just maybe, learn to love ourselves anew in the process."

—Ewuare Osayande, Caught at the Crossroads Without a Map; Chairperson of the Philadelphia Black Radical Congress

Self-love is the only kind of love that can ever truly heal and rescue us, causing us to be more open in all of our other relationships, activities, and endeavors.101 Ways Black Women Can Learn to Love Themselves: A Gift for Women of All Ages  is a book about self-actualization, the power of sisterhood, the healing power of sharing our own stories, and the beauty of lifting as we climb. A gift for women (and men) of all ages, it reminds Black women that we are Queens and, above all, human beings who need to first heal and love ourselves unconditionally, before we can ever attempt to liberate or give back to the nation.

In addition to being an inspiring and empowering read that helps Black women to return to their traditional greatness (nia), the book also includes an extensive recommended reading list, a list of organizations and websites, and a guide to historically Black colleges and universities.
